Gavin Vorster Testimonial Countryline Sunny man in outdoor garden, promoting sustainable landscaping practices, finding green solutions for eco-friendly gardens.

JPJ Landscapes provided Countryline Horticulture with a 3-day basic gardening / introductory to landscape maintenance training to 20 of our newly appointed staff members in 2019.

This training was provided in-house at our maintenance site in Umhlanga Town Centre in two groups of 10 employees. Onsite training meant that the disruption to our work programme was minimised and employees got to learn in their working environment.

The training was well received by the staff and improvement of skills in the team has been valuable to our company while improving the level of service to our clients. JPJ Landscapes training material, methodology and delivery comes highly recommended by Countryline Horticulture.
